@Zyzz In terms of rehabbing your ankle- calf raises and toe ups (sit down and extend your ankle as high as you can and hold for a second) can help strengthen the muscles around it to reduce your risk of re-injuring it

@Ch-- Wow! That makes perfect sense. My gf smokes every night before bed (I wish she wouldn't) but the few nights when she does not, she has really bad dreams. She has a rough past and dreams about that sometimes. Is there any advice you can give? Should she stop? What are potential health risks?

Disc golf is a great activity that involves skill, getting outside, and lots of activity. Yeah it has people that smoke but that doesn't mean the acitivty itself is dumb. Maybe some of those "degenerates" just need a group like IE to show them the way and change their life.

@Deleted User try massaging it. Also try different variations of curls, and try to switch the placement of your elbow (maybe bring it closer to your body or farther out in front of you to isolate the bicep)

Hey man just gotta make the best of what you have been given right? I am thin too and can run a mile in 6 min, but part of me has wished I was a little bigger. But at the end of the day, I try to make the best of what I've been given

I recently read that quarter squats can improve sprinting and vertical jump ability much better than full squats so I have been doing quarter squats because i like to play basketball and also have a bad knee if I squat about halfway down

@Gaius Mucius Scaevola I would say do it before you jog at the end. You can go all-out with your punches and kicks and use up any energy you have. If you do it (and go hard) before lifting, your lift will probably not be as good.

Ok. She could be a little intimidated by an older guy. Probably not used to getting attention from a guy your age. If she is really into you, I bet you could convince her to hang out with you within 2 weeks

Unfortunately in the world we live in it is easier to cohabitate in many cases. As for the sex before marraige, it is difficult to get married in your early 20s due to financial reasons/ finding a woman who is mature enough

@JesseJames Nice, I am in my first year coaching baseball. I never realized there are a million little things to the game. My head was spinning after our first game from thinking about all the details haha. I respect athletes who show good qualities, but yeah for some reason some people worship them, like that's the highest way of measuring a man

Gf can’t understand why I don’t like it when she drinks and smokes marijuana. I have no problem if she has a drink or two at brunch, mostly the smoking I don’t like. When I give her a hard time she thinks I am trying to change who she is. Anyone else ever deal with this?

@Virgil i think i am doing that at least unconciously a bit. She had a tough home situation growing up- divorced parents, didnt feel loved by her mom, and definitely uses it to cope whether she knows it or not.

Its tough to get her into something new as she is a stubborn irish girl haha. And @TV i did notice some red flags, but I believe the positives greatly outweigh those. And she did have a difficult family situation, so if we were to have a daughter I would not let that happen, and I don’t believe she would either

@ThisIsChris 3 years and change. @Rick she knows my views and is cool with it but doesnt get into that stuff. But she did make fun of all the Trump protestors after the election calling them babies, hahah

I was sitting on a hill watching the sunset with my gf, at a public park, about 20 yards behind us was the road...a black kid and his two white friends walk behind us and the black kid goes "Relationship goals...till a black n-word F's yo b**ch". It was just loud enough for me to hear, but I ignored it.. What would you guys have done?

At the end of the day I realize that this guy is a nobody and basically means nothing. In the long run it literally does not matter- but of course it would have been sweet to kick his arse. But what would that accomplish?

I hear you guys...yeah it was one of those things where it took a second to realize, wait this guy is probably talking about us, and juuust loud enough for me to hear. Chances are the guy was too cowardly to say something straight to our face. Probably trying to look good in front of his friends

Yeah..again, it could have gone either way, so I wanted to see what you guys think. Also I don’t think it impacted my gf too much...which is probably the most important thing. I usually dont care if someone says something to me and I’m by myself...guess I have learned to put my ego aside most of the time

@Robtheroman Whats your take on bare knuckle fighting? Does it display masculine virtues, or stupidity and barbarianism? Personally I would never get into that, I value my brain cells and face too much.

I stay away from any of those sugar free sweeteners. I used to sell an energy drink called “zipfizz”, which had no sugar and claimed to be healthy. It had sucralose which is bad. The owner/creater ended up dying at 44, didnt say the cause.

@Gaius Mucius Scaevola it's all about reading their body langauge man. If you get eye contact or smiling that is very good. If she positions herself near you or so you can clearly see her that is good too. And if she touches you in any way that is a dead giveaway.
